Napster Signs Indie Deal

Posted by Hemos on from the good-deal dept.

A reader:"The BBC News site has a story about Napster signing a deal with 150 record companies to distrube their music over the net." Interesting to note this piece though that the usage has totally dropped off the face of the earth.

    They forgot signing me in to the deal. It is I the user that is supplying all the real product, why with my harddrive space sending out files over my bandwidth. Where is my cut?

    "The agreement covers music from more than 150 record companies, including artists such as Stereophonics, Moby, Ash, Paul Oakenfold, Underworld and Tom Jones."

    If anyone can save Napster, its Tom Jones! When I heard the news, I threw my panties at the monitor!
